Since you have been so violent and so vehement that I give more pics, I offer up these. May they be poetry to your earlobes...

Another irresistable shot...the cool classic firetruck cab (quintesential testosterone) meets bride's shoes and bouquet (quintesential estrogen)... You know - Boy meets Girl?

I have waited all my life for this one: A Bishop actually doing some good! Imagine the irony... a man of the cloth--WORKING?!?!

(It's ok, Ray had his shots at me all weekend. It's only fair I get some payback!)

And what red-blooded male doesn't get just a tad excited when in the presence of one of these machines?

My Latest Photo Subject.

Pretty decent, as subjects go. No complaints. But doesn't listen extra well either...

Enjoy

How great is God?

He put detail and intricasies in creation that we can't even see. We don't even know about some of them. He put them their for His pleasure and (should we ever find them) His glory. What a God.

This is just some that we can see - with basic optics.

Genesis 1:14-19 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.  And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

Is That The Lights of Home I See?

IMG_9894   

What is it about the lights of home that so stirs our souls? Just knowing we are home safe? The impeding rest for the weary? The comforts we know therein abide? I'm not sure.

I took this pic a week ago, and it has almost haunted me. No, not kept me up at night, nor have I thought about it all the time. But when ever I do think about it, it makes me nostalgic. Makes me want to go home.

(End of soft nostalgic background music)

Why is it, that on the day I have taken off school (to go hang out with the Feds) I still wake up at the same time. 5:00 rolls around and I am wide awake! Not fair in the slightest.

Why am I hanging out with the Feds? To make my wife more American and less Canadian. We are working on her Green Card and part of the process is an interview. So we today shall trek to Cleveland and explain to them that we are indeed married for the purposes of love, and a desire to be together, not a scheme to get her a Green Card. That is why we hang out with the Feds. (And if you are reading this, Mr Fed, we deeply value your friendship )

So much for sleeping in...

Ryan
